Chapter 545 Marriage Customs in the Northeast

"Hmph, you're not ...... either" Wang Ying was just halfway through speaking, and her nose was suddenly pinched by Yang Juan, making her unable to speak.

"I'm with you, don't bite Lu Dongbin, I don't know the hearts ......of good people," Yang Juan scared her.

"Okay, I won't say it, cut, don't think I don't know......"

"Wang Ying, if you keep talking, I'm really angry."

"Hehe, don't be angry, I'll get you medicine. Did you see the box, he ordered it to be loaded. Yang Juan, if it weren't for you, his life would be gone this time. I know he's embarrassed to thank you in person, but I know in my heart that you saved his life and my sister's life. ”

"Don't say that, if you say it's going to be repaid, I should repay you. Actually, this time, without the joint efforts of our two families, Wunu Mountain would have been bulldozed by the little devils a long time ago, if you want to save it, it was you who saved Wunu Mountain. However, I am still very happy to accept these things, alas, the team of six or seven thousand people in Wunu Mountain, now there are about two thousand people left, and this battle is really miserable. ”

"Yang Juan, the relationship between the two of us is that the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, and the grasshoppers on a rope are both prosperous and lossy. To help the guerrillas is to help us volunteers themselves. Alas, if he hadn't insisted on letting you go back, I would have wanted to keep you in the Volunteers. He said it would be good for both of us to go back. You are the bridge. Listen, he really knows how to use words and treats you as a bridge. By the way, he also promised to give you a thousand newly recruited vigilantes. You've got a lot of face. Wang Ying looked at her with a smile and said.

"My Commander Wang, I know that these things are what you mean, you are the commander, if you don't agree, he doesn't have the right to send them even if he wants to. Thank you, Sister Wang Ying. Yang Juan reacted quite quickly, and she took the credit on her head.

"Even if you still have a conscience, I don't have a white pain for this sister. Okay, no matter who sent it, it's for your sake anyway. Let's go, you are about to become our eldest lady on the mountain, as if you are married, and the dowry alone is four big cars. Wang Ying said with a smile as she walked to the first car with her.

"If I really want to be the princess of the mountain, I won't marry in this life, and I will follow you." Yang Juan glanced at the mountain affectionately and muttered in a low voice.

Sending Yang Juan back to Wunu Mountain, Mengzi made an excuse and didn't send her.

This is not because the fierce son is unkind and doesn't want to repay the grace of saving his life, but because he is afraid that Wang Ying will misunderstand, and he is even more afraid of seeing Yang Juan. Because from the moment when the two people sacrificed their lives to save each other, he knew that the kind of emotion between the two people was more or less mixed with something else, but this kind of thing could not be seen or touched, but it could indeed be felt. Therefore, when Yang Juan and Wang Ying proposed that they were almost recuperating from their injuries and wanted to return to Wunu Mountain, he did not stop them. It's just that in my heart, there is a slight feeling of sadness that is difficult to excrete.

In a few days, Song Feng will be back. This time, there happened to be goods to be sent to Andong Donggang, and after Song Feng asked for instructions, Mengzi finally agreed to let him come back once. Without special circumstances, he would not normally agree to Song Feng's return to Manchuria, mainly because he was afraid that his whereabouts would be exposed.

This time, it was because Song Feng was too concerned about the situation of the volunteers, and at the same time, Huang Xiaoxiao repeatedly told him that he must go back to Tiesha Mountain to see the injury of the fierce son with his own eyes. The second is that he hasn't seen his brothers on the mountain for almost two or three years. The third is that the wedding between Mengzi and Commander Wang Ying did not attend, so I just took this opportunity to make up for it. Another point is that I want to take a look at Liu Guihua, the captain of the women's team.

Regarding the matter of Song Feng and Liu Guihua, Mengzi has long been aware of it, and of course he has no objection. For this matter, he once discussed with Wang Ying, and Wang Ying was also very supportive of the relationship between the two people, and once wanted to send Liu Guihua to Hong Kong, but Liu Guihua herself disagreed, saying that she would fight the little devil for a few more years.

In the Kanto region, it is common for girls to marry off when they reach the age of sixteen or seventeen. Especially now, when the chaos is in chaos, who dares to keep the big girl, and it is relieved to marry early. Although Liu Guihua has been married, she is not very old, only twenty-two years old. The husband's whole family was all killed by the little devil in the Liujiabao tragedy, and now he is alone. Twenty-two years old, this is considered a big girl in Kanto, so, Mengzi thought, this time Song Feng came back, and the two of them would get married and let her go to Hong Kong.

Huaxia is a vast land, and the customs of marriage in each place are different, and in Kanto, marriage has its own set of customs. Of course, these wedding customs are some old gifts when the little devil didn't come, and no one pays attention to this set anymore. But Mengzi still felt that he should set up a few tables on the mountain, and he just took this opportunity to make the brothers lively.

There are already so many people looking for a daughter-in-law in Tiesha Mountain, those women rescued from Liujiabao, and some of the people in the women's team under Wang Ying, almost half of them have their own home, Wang Ying once said that he would give them a decent wedding, this time, Mengzi wanted to have a spoonful of stew.

There are marriage customs in the Northeast, and no one knows when it started, but anyway, it has formed its own set of procedures until now, and it continues to this day.

Weddings in the Northeast must be held at the man's home. If the weather is not cold, there are more than a dozen tables in the courtyard of the man's house, of course, there is no need to be afraid of no tables, in Kanto, the most in the house is wooden boards. The first base of green bricks, two ends and one load will become. For the marriage of their son, ordinary people began to raise a fat pig as early as a year ago, and when the pig grew to about 200 catties, it was just the wedding period.

The most important thing about weddings in the Northeast is the wedding banquet. The master chef of the kitchen is a well-known cooker in ten miles and eight villages, and he will bring his apprentices over on the first day, set up a seven-star stove, kill pigs and chop chickens, large pots and small pots, and some dishes that need to be made the next day, all of which are ready.

And the wedding banquet is called the flowing water seat, the meaning is clear, that is, people to the flowing water, go a wave and come a wave, of course, this first wave, the in-laws congratulate the people are not in the number, to entertain the mother's family first, and wait for the mother's family to eat the banquet, after sending away, then to the relatives and friends of the mother-in-law's family.

At weddings in the Northeast, an indispensable person is "Zhang Luo", which is commonly known as the master of ceremonies. There are two kinds of "Zhang Luo", simple, one worships heaven and earth, the other worships the high hall, husband and wife worship each other, and enter the cave room together, and it's okay. Complicated, it is necessary to preside over the ceremony on the one hand, gags on the other hand, humorous ridicule, there are always many raps, so that the newlyweds are embarrassed, let the guests laugh, the bride and groom are like puppets, and "Zhang Luo" has become the protagonist. The role of "Zhang Luo" is very important, too serious and too stupid, it will make the scene dull and dull, too comedy, too funny, and will make the scene shallow and vulgar. ”

"What is it to be married? Bow at dusk, so it is called marriage. "In ancient times, the word "ceremony" was included in the word "marriage". This does not prevent the marriage ceremony from still being called a wedding. But the wedding ceremony does not begin with the bride and groom facing many guests. It can be said that in the Northeast, when the groom goes to the woman's house to pick up the bride, from serving the "cornucopia", hanging curtains, until sitting on the bed, the wedding begins at that time.

The next step is the speech of the parents of the bride and groom. Nor is that true. According to the customs of the Northeast people, the bride's mother is not allowed to be present when she gets married.

In fact, one of the most consistent links between the wedding of the authentic Kanto people and the world is the haunting room. The haunted house is what many people are keen on.

However, there are some differences between the customs of the cave houses in the Kanto region and those in other places:

The origin of the cave house in the Northeast is because the new daughter-in-law is not familiar with the man she wants to marry when she enters the door, and she has never met.

In the Northeast, who a woman wants to marry, it is not up to her own to decide, it is up to her parents to decide. But if it weren't for a village, it would be miserable. The parents of marriage are in charge, and the two newlyweds have no chance to meet before entering the cave room, so they can only meet when they are in the room.

And on the wedding night, two couples who have never met before have to sleep on the same kang, even if you think about it again, you may feel uncomfortable. The haunting room, at the beginning, wanted to let the two newcomers eliminate the estrangement and pierce the shy "window paper" through this kind of lively and lively everyone. At the same time, it also has a bit of a sense of learning and application.

In the Northeast, these programs are indispensable in the general haunting houses:

The first one is to take the chopsticks

A pair of chopsticks are placed in the wine bottle, only a short section is exposed, and the bride and groom are asked to take out the chopsticks with their lips with all their might, which is actually to let the two perform a kiss. Of course, most of the time, the person who puts the chopsticks will use a bad heart, leaving the length of the chopsticks just as flat as the bottle mouth, and it is intentionally difficult for a pair of newcomers.

The second is to eat apples (Kanto people have very few apples, so it is common to use small red round radishes instead)

Tie an apple with an elastic rope and hang it at the height of the bride and groom's mouths, asking the two to work together to eat the apple. If done not properly, the groom's mouth will bite the bride's mouth, which of course is exactly what these people who watch the excitement want to see.

The third is to light matches

Stick a match on the jujube and float it in a basin of water. A lit cigarette is tied in the middle of a red thread, and the two ends are bitten by the newlyweds, and the two of them advance and retreat, and work together to light the match in the basin with the cigarette.

The fourth is the pinch marble

Prepare a plate of glass marbles, let the bride and groom each hold a chopstick, and the two of them will clip the marbles together.

The fifth is the Sahi bed

When the bed is in the haunted room, the groom's sister-in-law comes forward, hands the tray, spreads red paper on the plate, and puts chestnuts, dates, peanuts, guiyuan and other things. The bride sits on the bed, and the sister-in-law grabs dried fruits and sprinkles them on the bed, singing some small tunes as she goes. The people in the cave room also echoed the voice, and the laughter and laughter in the cave room continued all night, and the sound of laughter and slapstick was higher and higher.

The sixth is blowing out candles

Two candles are lit and placed on the table, and the bride and groom stand opposite each other with their eyes covered with cloth. Start blowing out the candles. But it won't be that simple, some bad boys and bad girls, quickly replace a pot of flour with candles. "One, two, three, blow." The flour was raised, and the two suddenly became white, which means "growing old together." ”
